The first physical release by this still unsigned Australian group. Although relatively short, this EP is still very impressive. Aquilus manages to create some truly unique atmospheres, with a near perfect mix of traditional harsh black metal elements, folk, and omni-present synths. The only downside to this release is that it is an EP, and because of this it is relatively short. What is also unfortunate is that even though this EP is already two years old, so far it has been their latest release and they have never produced a full length. Hopefully sometime in the near future we will see the triumphant return of Aquilus.

Recommended for fans of Hellveto, Opeth, Agalloch, Kataxu, ect.
